Text sending multiple times and not receiving all text on verizon messages website
Hello,
I've been using the Verizon Messages app since it was pretty much released. Overall it's worked well, however yesterday for some reason it started sending multiples of my same text to the recipient every 5-10 minutes. It continued for those persons dozens of times with the last text I would send. It didn't matter if I was sending it from my phone's (Moto Droid RAZR Maxx) verizon messaging app or the verizon messaging website. I signed in and out of the verizon messaging website but that didn't change anything. I then restarted my phone and it stopped sending multiples.
However since that time, I now am not getting text on the verizon messaging website from anybody. I receive them on my phone's app, but not on the website. Have tried different browsers, different computers, logging off and on, but it's not reflecting the text I've received. My phone's app is getting 100% of the text as far as I'm aware.
Anything to try on this matter would be great.
Thanks
Hi calhob,
My apologies for the issues that are occuring with your VZW Messages application. Are you opening all of the messages directly on your device? If you do not open one of the messages, does this message show online? Are you able to send messaging from the computer based website? Please keep us posted, thanks!

Droid X2 not receiving all texts/ calls
I, along with my family have been a customer of Verizon for over 13 years now. In the past 4-5 months my Droid X2 has not been receiving all text messages and calls. There is no pattern that I have been able to track. I text people from across the nation so where I send from and/or to does not make a difference. This phone is a refurb because I used my insurance to replace the original to hopefully fi this same exact issue. I've done extensive research on how to fi this problem but have not come up with anything. The restarts, wipe cache, delete certain apps does not work. I do not want to be forced to become a customer of another company but I will do so if the issue can not be alleviated.
I understand how frustrating and inconvenient missing your calls and text messages can be and I'm here to help.
I also have the HTC Thunderbolt and have not had this problem. I've thoroughly researched this and did not find it has been reported as a known issue by other users.
You mentioned you updated your phone two weeks ago. Was it the Gingerbread SW update? If not, click here for instructions on how to update the SW.
If you already have Gingerbread I recommend performing a hard reset.
If you are still experiencing missed calls or text messages after the hard reset, please post back so I can further assist you. -
Why is my Droid Mini suddenly not receiving all texts sent to me?
It doesn't matter if the sender is iPhone, Blackberry, etc. or Verizon, AT&T, etc. It started with picture messages. I had to send a text to whoever was sending me a picture before the picture "pushed through". Now I am sporadically not receiving regular texts. I am missing important messages - this is unacceptable!
I have service during the missed messages. I routinely get a "Messaging has stopped working." warning. Sometimes I'm on WiFi, sometimes I'm not.
Any ideas?We don't want you to miss any messages AMKrieger, I know how important it is to receive and send them. Please make sure your wi-fi connection is turned off, then reset the messaging application (make sure it's the stock application), http://vz.to/1hSEebv . Test your messages again and keep us posted.

Send a text two days ago and recipient receive this text message over and over again
send a text two days ago and recipient receive the same message over and over again! Is it something wrong with my iphone 4?
Does you Messages app show repeated sending of the same message? I agree it is most likely carrier related.

Duplicate email in outlook and not receiving all e...
I have looked at the other posts about duplicate emails but none seem to answer my problem
Recently I have started getting duplicate emails in my Outlook inbox, even if I have read them in Outlook. I have also noticed I am not receiving all emails, including the one from BTcommunity asking for verification of email to acces this forum. I only use BY Yahoo on line to check and delete spam and do not read email online at BTYahoo.
I have not, as far as I am aware, changed any of the settings in Outlook or on BTYahoo.
The Bt help screen swere less than helpful as my BTyahoo pages do not seem to have the options they suggest.
Another concern is the repeated downloading to outlook of the same emails will increase my braodband usage.
Solved!

Hi. Welcome to the forums.
Although receiving emails in Outlook will increase the usage, emails are generally very small - unless they all contain large attachments.
Duplicate emails received in your case as described is generally down to an email fetch process from Outlook (or any mail client program) failing to complete the download, and hence an index into the received emails is not updated. When checking for emails again, it gets the same emails it had before until it properly finishes the fetch.
There are a few reasons this can occur including communications failure, but also stuck emails can cause it to happen, possibly Outlook checking for emails at the exact same moment you are say deleting spam via webmail at BTYahoo.
I assume you've checked the online spam folder in case various emails are ending up there, as opposed to just deleting the spam from the online Inbox.

Texts Send Multiple Times if Low Signal
I just posted about a bug where a message disappears, but that reminded me of another longstanding bug I'd like to report.
Sometimes in an area of low signal [1 bar], the following happens when I send a text message:
Text is sent and moves up to conversation as grey message.
Grey message stays grey a very long time.
Message may turn black or may have "!" in yellow triangle and give error message.
About 75% of the time, the recipient actually receives the message even when it says otherwise. What's worse, it seems to be trying and trying to send the message, because usually the recipient receives multiple copies.
I have inadvertently done this where it was received 6 times [6 is high--usually it's 2 or 3 times] and still the message was reported as not sent. I get that it's harder to send a message in areas with low signal but this seems like a bug that needs to be addressed.Text messages is one of my favorite features on my phone so I completely understand the need of it working as it should. Which model device do you have and what is your zip code? Is anyone else having issues with text messages?
Share details so that we can further assist.
Thank you,

Integrated Messaging not receiving all texts
I turned on my integrated messaging to use the on-line feature of checking SMS/MMS texts. It worked for a few weeks, showing me all my incoming and out going texts on my PC in my verizon account, then it quit.
Now, it only shows group texts that I receive and pictures. No just plain texts in or out. I work in a building with bad cell phone reception and I loved being able to log in to my Verizon on my PC at work and keep up with my texts...what can i do to have it work for both OUT going and INCOMING texts? I have tried to un-subscribe then subscribe again, and have looked at every setting there is, but nothing works.. Any suggestions? My phone is not a smart phone but that didn't make any difference in the beginning since it worked a couple of weeks. Thanks for all help!!I want you to be able to enjoy the benefits of integrated messaging jack8245! What make and model device do you have? This feature is mainly utilized with smartphones; therefore it may be a device limitation even if the feature was once working. Have you tried removing the battery? How about deleting your message threads and starting new ones? When you initiated the service, was it on the phone or via My Verizon. I recommend deleting and readding the feature to reset it.
Sincerely,

When sending a text via normal texting ( I turn my mobile data off whilst out and not on WiFi so I am not using IMessage ) I can send the message without a problem. However when the text reaches the person ive sent it to and they reply,I don't always receive the text they have replied with. I have tried doing simple things like turning the mobile data on and off again and nothing has changed,still not receiving all the texts I get sent. Any idea why this could be happening?
Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
If the issues continue, you may need to consider restoring as new. -
Downloaded iOS7 on my 4S. Mostly went well, but sometimes screens lock up (especially text, but also Settings). Find I cannot access and send texts sometimes, plus do not receive some texts from others (group messages real problem). Any work around? And related problem: Getting told can not connect to network when trying to sign on with Apple ID to launch Facetime and Messages.
I've restarted several times. If I restore from backup, unfortunately the backup was done after iOS7 downloaded. Now, am I wrong that "restore as new" will essentially wipe me out? If so, and having backup, you're saying essentially start over and then backup?

I replaced my iPhone with a Samsung Galaxy5 and I am not receiving all of my text messages now. The rep at the store told me to go to iTunes and take my phone # off of the account and that would fix the problem. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages anyway?
You need to remove your phone number from the iMessage system.

Ok, since this forum is for Photoshop Standard and Photoshop Extended, we don't know much about Photoshop Elements. There is a Photoshop Elements forum and I'll link it for you since they best know how to field your questions.

I have an IPhone 4 and have no problem sending texts usually. A friend got a new Samsung and is NOT receiving my texts. Contact info has been confirmed as correct. Any suggestions or insight?
Thank you for being patient with a "beginner" :-) I have now realized that I had no understanding of how iCloud would affect things.
Calendar: On the iPhone I have set the default calendar to "From my PC" and now things are working ok. I have done the same on the iPad and this is also working ok. I accept that to keep things in sync I have to connect (by USB) to the PC but this is ok.
Contacts: I was about to make the equivalent changes regarding Contacts and have done so on the iPhone only to find that there is no "From my PC" on the iPad.
Any suggestions/help would be much appreciated.
Would I be better off just getting rid of iCloud and going back to USB sync every now and then. This used to be fine for me. Perhaps I have been making things difficult by mixing iCloud with a non-iCloud device (the W7 PC).
Anyway, once again, many thanks for your patience.

Is there any way to sort the alarms differently in the Clock app? I have alarms for multiple days during the week, all of which overlap each other. It makes no sense to me that the alarms sort by time and not day.
No, there is no way to change the sort order.
